What issue are you seeing?

Tooltip/popover hovers are triggered due to layout shifts, not only pointer activity. This is fine for example when scrolling with touch gestures or the mouse wheel. But it is wrong when the layout shifts are caused by typing.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

• On an empty session, click into the central prompt input and park the mouse pointer below some active UI element contained in the chat input below the text area.
• Type multiple lines of text into the input, the mouse pointed automatically hides after the first key presses (fine)
• The input grows, shifting the layout such that an active element is now beneath the hidden mouse pointer.
• The tool tip for that element pops up, often blocking the text you are typing

What is the expected behavior?

Tooltip/popover hover activation should require recent real pointer movement. If the last input modality was keyboard, layout changes must not open hover tooltips merely because a hidden/stationary cursor now overlaps a trigger.
